[quote=Anonymous]In the last couple of years I have really struggled with issues of performance anxiety related to my professional work. It doesn't happen often but when it does it is debiliating. My panic attacks usually arise when I'm asked to present on a technical topic outside of my immediate technical area to other professionals in my field. No amount of preparation allievates the panic. It's something I actively avoid to the detriment of my career advancement but again, the panic attacks are severe enough that I become physically ill and will do anything to avoid having to do the presentation. Right now, I was sort of cornered into being the presenter at an upcoming conference and am engaged in a negotiation with my boss trying to get out of it. I know it looks bad. I know it diminshes how I'm perceived and I don't care. What do you all think? What do I need to get this resolved? Thanks and try to be kind.[/quote]
